I enjoy finding cars with lots of aftermarket accessories and optional equipment

Puma GT 1600

the biggest Tempo Matador ever made, an RV by the Mikafa Coachbuilders (Karosserie Minden Karosseriefabrik)

Mikafa means: Mindener Karrosserie und Fahrzeugbau

the owner bought this 1959 coach built RV from the kids of a Hungarian Count and his wife (who was of Vanderbilt lineage) and they used it for two three month long tours through Europe with their two children. After that it was shipped to the US and remained in use until the 1970's when it was parked in the garage. and could afford this rare one of 50 or so coach built RVs.

This cost about the same as a Mercedes 300 SL gullwing

The owner has posted many photos of this RV on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.800797216678143.1073741844.345776942180175&type=3 

someone else on the internet found a 1955: http://www.hotrost-team.de/index.php/oldtimer/1955er-tempo-matador-mikafa

These are a Tempo Matador chassis, which in Hamburg Harburg by the company. Vidal and son was made. The company MIKAFA (Minden Karrosseriefabriken) made ​​on the basis of the pace diverse special designs for wealthier Scouting. To my knowledge, cost of these campers well above 55,000, - DM, which was more than had been spending 300 SL for Mercedes.

The frame is made ​​of normal steel, only the outer skin of the vehicle is made ​​of 1.2 mm thick duralumin , The Fa. Mikafa had made ​​before the 2nd World War as an aircraft workshop with this lightweight, but very stable aluminum alloy good experience and then used in motorhomes, caravans and buses from 1948.
